I will need to extend the three power cords so I can move the pump stands.  It should be fun.

I reinstalled the float valve today.  Along with the basket strainer.  I capped off the old pvc line and capped off all the water lines.  I had to chisel off the old pump stand anchors.  I then attached the water hose to the Erie three way solenoid valve.  It will not win any beauty awards but I will have to work on cleaning it up tomorrow.  Also, re anchoring the pump stand.  The water pressure was perfect with no cavitating.

Today, I made the hot and cold water pvc lines and mounted the hot water line to the wall.  I also created a temp line from the tank to the new pvc line.  All the water is being run off the hot water line now.  My plan is to try and switch over tomorrow.

Supplies:  1) 8 x 18" long 1 1/2" pvc,  2) 2 x 5" long 1 1/2" pvc,  3) 10 x 3/4 x 3/4 barbs,  4) 4 x 1 1/2" elbow,  5) 2 x 1 1/2" cap,  6) 10 x 1/2" male x 1/2" female elbow threaded,  7) 2 x 1 1/2" male threaded end piece,  8 ) 10 x 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" x 3/4" threaded,  9) 5 x 5′ x 3/4" i.d. red hose,  10) 5 x 5′ x 3/4" i.d. blue hose,  11)  6 x 1 1/2" medal clamps,  12) misc. pieces of pvc to connect to the tank  13) 10 x 3/4 x 1/2 barbs,  14) 10 x 1" clamps

I did have a problem today.  The plumbing supply place (plumbingsupply.com) sent me one wrong connection.  It was supposed to be threaded instead it is slip.  I noticed of course, after I glued the whole thing together.  Also, it is in the middle.  But I need to look for a bushing.  A 3/4" slip to 3/4" female threaded.  Sounds unlikely but I will have to check tomorrow.
